Donald Fagen has provided the soundtrack of much of my life. A unique fusion of jazz, big band and blues genres, for me Donald is a standout composer. He is also inspiring for bringing what is definitely his own voice to carry the lyric of his songs. This is for all my muso friends; just sit back and enjoy as Donald walks us through the structure and sound of the Steely Dan hits Peg, Chain Lightning and Josie…

And here Rick Beato breaks down Kid Charlemagne…

For your Listening Pleasure…
